+1 to cartes du ciel. that is what i used to control the EQ mount. once you do that you really need to go to plate solving. i used Astrotortilla but it was a little flaky and extremely slow. after using theskyX, i am amazed at how quick it can find an astronomic solution.
i hate to break it to you Chris, you are on a slippery slope. you will always need better gear. at some point you have to be happy with what you got and try to improve with it. when you get a guider you are going to hit the problem of noise control with a DSLR, especially on hot nights, so you will want to cool your camera. you are going to hit sky glow issues which mean you want to use Narrow band filters. you will want to get better resolution so you will go for a bigger and longer FL scope. then you will need to get a coma corrector, laser collimation, ccd.
